Treasure Hunt

Step into the Treasure Hunt, where sharp eyes, quick thinking, and teamwork decide who cracks the code first. The Treasure Hunt is part of Ayam, and the DSAI Club is the organising committee for this event.

Event Overview:

The Treasure Hunt, held under Ayam (the college tech-fest) and organised by the DSAI Club, turns the whole campus into a puzzle.

• Teams follow a chain of hidden QR codes. Each QR code unlocks the next location along with one letter (or a part of a photo).
• Collect all the letters or photo pieces from the 6 hidden QR codes (plus 1 start QR, if provided) to form the final word/photo.
• Solve the riddles, move fast, and play fair. The first team to submit the correct final answer with verified QR photos wins.

How It Works:

• Teams receive the start QR (or the first clue) from the organisers.
• Each clue leads to a campus location where the next QR is hidden.
• Scan the QR at each location to unlock the next clue and one letter/part of the photo.
• After all 6 QR codes, combine the letters/photo parts to form the final word/photo.
• Submit the final word/photo through the Google Form, along with photos of every QR code you found, as proof.
• The first team with the correct answer and verified QR photos wins.

Evaluation Criteria:

• Correctness of the final word/photo.
• Verified photos of all QR codes found.
• Time of submission.
• Fair play and conduct throughout the hunt.
